Song Beiyun

"Thank you, Master Zhang for your kindness!" Song Beiyun cupped his hands in thanks, then turned around and kicked the buttocks of those young men who were still at a loss: "Stay in a daze! Thank you, Master Shangshu!"

Seeing these real young men, Zhang Shangshu's eyes were moistened, he couldn't help but think of his appearance when he was young, he was so dull in the past, but these dull people have the perseverance to change this little by little. Pick things out and let this never-before-seen thing run, scream, roar!

"Master Zhang, this department can't be the only one. Other departments must also have this policy." Song Beiyun said with a smile: "But Lord Shangshu, don't worry, we would rather lack than abuse, and the subordinates will only choose the best."

"Don't worry, the Ministry of Industry has a lot of positions. There is a shortage of good jobs in the Song Dynasty, and the shortage is everywhere in the world!"

Zhang Shangshu said with a confident smile: "I was thinking that if one day a master worker could sit in my position."

"Great kindness." Song Beiyun chuckled: "Master Zhang, continue shopping?"

"go."

After that, the two visited the glass workshop and the iron workshop. These two places were the most smoky, but when seeing the car outside the workshop filled with shiny and shining glass, Zhang Shangshu couldn't help feeling Picked up a few and played with it.

"This... is probably better than the man-eating Liuli? Master Song, why don't you put it in the market?"

"Master Zhang, this thing was still considered a luxury in the Song Dynasty. Many businessmen in the Song Dynasty made a living from it. If you invest in it rashly, wouldn't it cut off his life?" In the long run, besides, this glass is not only used as a plaything, but there are too many uses in the future."

Zhang Shangshu thought for a while, and gave Song Beiyun a strange look. No wonder this person was approved and commended by Zhao Xiang. How did this person's head grow?She is simply an exquisite heart.

"Master Zhang, it's getting late, why don't you stay for a meal?"

"Is there a cafeteria here?" Zhang Shangshu still has a good impression of the cafeteria at the Imperial City Division and R&D Center: "If there is, then go to the cafeteria to eat."

"Of course there is, otherwise how can I spend money like water."

Chapter 368: On July 7 of the second year, it was sunny and stinky to the extreme Buddha Baonu

There is a large canteen in the workshop. The canteen is contracted. The price per person is ten yuan per day, which is calculated as two meals a day. Lunch and dinner are five yuan each, but breakfast has to be bought by the workers themselves. Come to eat, but even this is much cheaper than outside, hot white flour steamed buns, fragrant porridge, a strong man can eat for only two pennies, but it costs four or five pennies outside .

The contractor of the cafeteria is the family of the sons of the old eunuch Wang. The craftsmen and craftsmen in the workshop are quite satisfied.

"You are really burning money."

Zhang Shangshu took a bite of a three-two-weight steamed bun in his hand, drank a mouthful of broth, and finally ate a mouthful of pickles: "No wonder the head of the household department scolded you."

"Hahahaha, I can't help it." Song Beiyun was also holding a steamed bun, and waved his hands with a smile: "I can't help it, Mr. Zhang... You are knowledgeable, how can you not know the way here, if I am pocketing a penny , I am struck by lightning."

Hey, it's interesting to talk about this. Has no one checked Song Beiyun?The answer is of course no, he is about to be found to be ruined, but no matter when he can't find any stains on him.

Such a corrupt official, known to both civil and military officials in the whole dynasty, can't find a single bit of corruption?Of course, there are unbelievers in the court. They can say that they will do everything in order to bring down this traitor, but in the end they find that not only did he not reach out, but he almost emptied his family because of these things.

This……

Usually the people who put money into it are either preparing to rebel or own their own property, but this is Song Beiyun's property, and Song Beiyun's cronies add up to only a few people. self-respect.

What is he... trying to figure out?

Countless people are asking themselves, what is he trying to do?

The unsolved mysteries of the Song Dynasty so far, apart from how Taizu died and where Zhao Yiyi went, now there is another one that is Song Beiyun's plan.

Such a person...he is a sycophant and a traitor, and everyone in the world knows him.What he did was completely done by courtiers, but such a person neither made the public resentful nor made all the officials jealous. Except for the fact that Yushitai changed his face when he mentioned his name, other temples seemed to have heard nothing about Song Beiyun. name.Another point is that he really has no stains...

There is no stain, and moral denunciation alone will not be successful, not to mention that both Zhao Xiang and Ding Siqing seem to be protecting this person intentionally.

You must know that these two people are deadly enemies, the kind who wish to put each other to death, but they are both protecting the same Song Beiyun, why?Figure that Song Beiyun looks good?

Of course, some people also reported Song Beiyun to the queen mother, but the queen mother just said "sorrow has nothing to do with state affairs" and prevaricated.It was only later that people discovered that the Queen Mother's party bosses seemed to be operating in some money-making channels arranged by Song Beiyun, and they flourished...

How could a traitor manage to protect all the civil and military relatives and internal officials of the Manchu Dynasty? Why?

So it was said in the public that Song Beiyun was the favorite of the Song Dynasty, and that he was able to live well after smearing sesame oil on his buttocks, so that could be used as an axle.Anyway, how dirty and yellow it is.

But the more yellow and dirty this kind of rumors mean, the more he has no place to slander. Some dirty literati wrote him into a book and wanted to print it in a bookstore secretly, but... the editor over there just put the manuscript away after reviewing it. He was dismissed, and said, "Da Song has never been convicted for his words, but you can resist beating or not."

"Yes, there is no way." Zhang Shangshu sighed and said, "Just keep working, the Song Dynasty can bear it, the officials can bear it, and this official can also bear it."

"In a few days, I'm going to discuss raising sheep with Prince Yelu. Da Song bought mutton, wool, etc. at a high price. When the wool spinning factory comes out, I plan to get the canning factory out."

"Cannery? What's that?"

"That's it, after Mr. Zhang has eaten, come and take a look with me."

After a meal, they entered the canning laboratory. There was no one here at the moment, but as far as the eye could see, the whole room was full of bottles and jars, all of which were glass jars. The buckle is sealed with foil oil paper on the top, and the date is marked on the outside of the jar. The earliest one is marked on March [-]th, and it has been more than three months and nearly four months.

There are some seasonal fruits in it, and the soup inside is yellowish, but it still looks a bit like it.

At this time, a middle-aged man in common clothes ran over quickly, his head was sweaty, he wiped the sweat from his head, and said out of breath: "Caomin pays homage to Zhang Shangshu, Mr. Song...has never thought about it twice." I want to come, this..."

"No problem." Zhang Shangshu pointed to the jar: "This is it?"

"Canned food." The man stepped forward and took the canned food down: "Master Song said it is called canned food, Caomin is in charge of this place."

"He's a cook from the Liao Kingdom." Song Beiyun smiled and said, "In his forties?"

"Forty-three, read some books, and later became a cook in the middle of the family." The man smiled and said: "The name of the grassroots is Zhang Anmin."

"The name is a good name." Zhang Shangshu pointed to the can in his arms and said, "What is this thing for?"

"Eat...eat." That Zhang Anmin walked over and opened the seal on the can: "This is the method taught by Mr. Song. Put the fruit in the jar, pour in sugar water and steam it, and then seal the mouth while it is hot. , saying that it can guarantee that it will not rot for a year.”

"Oh?"

Zhang Shangshu stretched out his hand: "Go to the spoon."

"Master Shangshu...don't...you are precious, no one has eaten this, this..."

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Shangshu shook his head and said, "I can still eat it if it's bad or not."

"take."

Song Beiyun gave an order, and Zhang Anmin nervously brought an iron spoon. Zhang Shangshu glanced at it: "This thing also uses iron? But it's extravagant and wasteful."

"Iron horses are worthless." Song Beiyun smiled and said, "Master Shangshu, try."

As for canned yellow peaches, fresh yellow peaches are washed and peeled after being picked, then steamed in a pot together with the jar, and then soaked in sugar water. As long as it is well sealed, there will be no problem for a year or two.

Zhang Shangshu carefully scooped up a spoonful of soup, took a sip, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "It's really been March?"

After he finished speaking, he took a closer look at the dust outside the jar. It had indeed been a while, so he stopped talking nonsense and continued to take out a piece of peach meat and ate it. The peach was not soft and a bit crunchy, but it still had a peachy taste and was not corrupt. It is even more delicious than fresh yellow peaches, because the sweetness is stronger and the aroma is stronger.

"Amazing." Zhang Shangshu took another sip of the soup: "It's amazing!"

Song Beiyun secretly smiled beside him, but Zhang Anmin heaved a sigh of relief, glanced at Song Beiyun secretly, then calmed down a little and continued: "If you use this method to make fruit with sugar and meat with salt, the fruit and Meat can last at least half a year, even in midsummer."

Zhang Shangshu put down the spoon, his expression lost in thought, and after a while, he turned to Song Beiyun and asked, "Can this be used as military rations?"

"Of course." Song Beiyun said with a smile: "Not only that, if we have this in the future voyage, we can get twice the result with half the effort."

There is nothing magical about canned food. The biggest advantage is that it can preserve food for a long time without cooking. The biggest problem now is the problem of sealing the mouth. Because it is impossible to make metal bottle caps, this thing is temporary. Still in the experimental stage.

The birth of this canned food is actually Song Beiyun's first step in his charge for potatoes. The food problem for ocean voyages must be solved first.

Of course, Sino-Ocean is still planning for the next step. This step... is to pit the Liao Kingdom.Their wool is collected and made into woolen clothes and sold back. They exchange a cart of wool for three woolen clothes. Their mutton is collected in and canned for ten times and sold back.

What is it called?This is called high value-added squeeze!What Guan Zhong buys silk, low-end.Squeezing high added value is the kingly way. It not only squeezes the living space of their own country, but also sucks blood from them to a large extent. They export so much but still can't see the money.

They have a lot of iron ore, so they will make weapons and send them there. Two tons of iron ore will be exchanged for ten fine steel swords.Fool them into raising pigs, sheep, and fish, then sell them metal, glass, and concrete products, use their raw materials to earn their money, and then buy their raw materials ten times.

At that time, the Liao Kingdom will be a toy of the Song Dynasty, so you can do whatever you want, and then see how that round-faced little Huya will be rampant with himself!beat?The lifeline of the economy is in our hands, so what can we do with it?If you want money, no money, no products, no products, no people, no one, fight with your life! ?

But these things must not be told to others. Song Beiyun can't tell anyone except Zhao Xing. It is safest to boil the frog in warm water, and you must not boil the pot to beat the toad.

As for the future export of weapons, hot weapons are coming out here, who cares about a few kitchen knives, as long as the steel quality and forging technology pass the test, Song Beiyun will show them what is called Song Beiyun water-cooled cloth tearing machine.

Wait to die, round-faced little Huya!

Song Beiyun didn't go back at night. There is a dormitory here and there are people waiting for him. He goes back every two to three days on average.

Early the next morning, when he had just finished washing and was eating the steamed bun porridge brought by his servants, the guards of the Imperial City Division outside said that someone was looking for him at the gate of the workshop.

"Who is it? They all found it here."

"The man said that you will find out if you go and have a look, and told me not to ask. He also said that if Mr. Song doesn't go, he will regret it for the rest of his life."

"I know who it is." Song Beiyun got up with a steamed bun in his mouth: "She stinks!"

Chapter 369: On July 7 of the second year, a bright moon was born on the clear sea, and the time for sleeping and dreaming

"Master Song, don't you invite me in to have a look?"

Facing such a question, Song Beiyun was not in a hurry to answer, but just took a step back silently, closed the door halfway, leaned out and pointed to the words on it.

"Everyone else, please stay away." After reading the above words, Fo Baonu showed a smile: "Master Song, you and I are friends after all, so how come we become idlers?"

Song Beiyun walked over and grabbed her by the shoulders: "Brother, to tell you the truth, this place belongs to the Ministry of Industry, so it doesn't matter what I say."

Fo Baonu disliked physical contact very much. She tried hard to shake off Song Beiyun's clutches, but that guy was stuck there like an octopus, and she couldn't break free no matter how hard she twisted.

"Put your hands down!" Fo Baonu warned in a low voice, "Don't blame me for falling out."

"Oh? Is that so?" Instead of moving away, Song Beiyun grabbed her thin shoulder with his backhand: "Then how will Prince Yelu turn his face? It's normal for men to behave like this. If Prince Yelu insists on going in, it's not right." No, but there are some rough people inside, and they are all shirtless when they work, even if I go in, I am also shirtless, I wonder if Prince Yelu would dare to go into battle shirtless?"

"You guys are a bit deceitful." Fo Baonu patted Song Beiyun with a fan: "I still don't believe it."

After that, she walked straight in, but the guard at the door suddenly unsheathed the steel knife, and pointed at Fo Baonu with a cold and ruthless face.

"Master Song, this is your way of hospitality in the Song Kingdom?"

"Okay, okay, outsiders are indeed not allowed to enter this place, so don't make things difficult for me, the First Prince." Song Beiyun said with a smile behind him, "Why don't you go and have a cup of tea?"

Fo Baonu turned his head and glanced at Xiao Song, turned around and was about to leave, but Song Beiyun followed closely behind, smiling as he walked, "Prince Yelu, I'm not talking too much, if you put on a nice little skirt and comb your hair With long hair and a little makeup, you will definitely be astonished."

"Why do men want those?" Fo Baonu spread out his fan: "Could it be that Mr. Song likes this one?"

"Ha." Song Beiyun laughed: "That's what I said, don't care about it, the First Prince."

Fo Baonu glanced at Song Beiyun: "Sir Song, why can't I go in and take a look at this workshop? Is it because I'm afraid I'll steal something good?"

"That's not true. After all, even if I put things in front of the First Prince, you will just ask 'what is this', steal? If you can steal it just by looking at it, what secret recipe is there in the world? .”

"Oh? Are you really so confident?" Fo Baonu stood still: "Is there really something in this world that I don't recognize?"

Song Beiyun smiled without saying a word, just took out a bullet from the bag and placed it in Fo Baonu's hand. This bullet was used to cast the mold for the model, and the top of the all-copper casting had been polished to become extremely smooth.

"What is this?"

"Look." Song Beiyun spread his hands, "What did I say?"

Fo Baonu snorted: "Take out any weird object, who will know what it is?"

Song Beiyun smiled, leaned into Fo Baonu's ear and whispered: "The eldest prince doesn't know something, this is a girl's boudoir toy, specially prepared for those unmarried or widowed women, you see Look at this, don't you know what's the use?"

Although Fo Baonu had no experience in certain fields, she could still understand Song Beiyun's meaning. She threw away the bullet mold like lightning, and glared at Song Beiyun with a blushing face.

But Song Beiyun didn't expect her to do this. He jumped up and down to pick up the mold, and carefully blew off the dust on it. Looking at the scratches on the warhead, his heart ached.

Although this thing cannot be fired, it is just a mold, but its commemorative significance is much greater than its actual significance. This may be the first fixed-load ammunition in human history. Its appearance marks the change of the times, and the era when cavalry is king When it appeared, it became history.

"Dirty."

Fo Baonu was so angry that he walked away, but Song Beiyun chased after her relentlessly.

"Hey, why do you lose your temper so easily? After all, you are the prince of a country, so don't be so stingy."

"I don't want to be with a villain like you." Fo Baonu walked forward quickly, swinging his fan: "Don't follow me anymore, you go."

"Okay, okay, can I treat you to dinner later?"

"Do not care."

Song Beiyun chased after Fo Baonu in three or two steps: "Wait, wait, don't be so stingy, just kidding, this is just a pendant, why do you really believe it is that thing? You are so narrow-minded."

"Hehe, whoever made you speak freely, if you let me into the workshop, I will forgive you."

"That won't work."

"Humph."

"Everyone is an adult now, don't act like a child." Song Beiyun said with a smile: "Well, I know there is a place that eats beef in the city, do you want to go?"

"Cow... You eat cows in the Song Kingdom???" Fo Baonu was shocked at the time: "How courageous!"

"Shhhhh..." Song Beiyun quickly stepped forward to cover her mouth: "You..."

Fo Baonu shook off his hand: "You really have the guts to break the law knowingly. If you were in Daliao, you would be beheaded."

"Why are you so naive? Go and find out, none of your county magistrates in the Liao Kingdom have ever eaten beef. They even killed their heads. I'm afraid you are the only one who is so naive in the world."

"Heh, he is indeed a villain who is corrupt and perverts the law. The words of the market are not without the truth." Fo Baonu said disdainfully: "Since you said so, then go and show me what this beef tastes like."

"No way, you haven't eaten?"
